More quotes by Matthew Fox
We honor life when we work. The type of work is not important: the fact of work is. All work feeds the soul if it is honest and done to the best of our abilities and if it brings joy to others.
Matthew Fox
We are in the cosmos and the cosmos is in us.
Matthew Fox
Im not really a tropical paradise kind of person.
Matthew Fox
The prophets preach . . . that pleasure, not will-power and coercion, is how you most deeply transform people.
Matthew Fox
Humor and paradox are often the only ways to respond to life's sorrow with grace.
Matthew Fox
I am a Westerner. We're not going to change the West by going East. The East has a lot to teach us, but essentially it's like a mirror, saying, hey, can't you see what's here in your own religion, what are you, stupid?
Matthew Fox
I directed an episode of 'Party of Five' toward the very end of that show. It was a great experience.
Matthew Fox
Work should be in order to live. We don't live in order to work. That shift in awareness is necessary.
Matthew Fox
Pain destroys the illusions of false, that is, elitist pleasures. It burns from the inside out. It, therefore, sensitizes us to what is truly beautiful in life.
Matthew Fox
To recover a spiritual tradition in which creation, and the study of creation, matters would be to inaugurate new possibilities between spirituality and science that would shape the paradigms for culture, its institution, and its people.
Matthew Fox
Evil is the shadow of angel. Just as there are angels of light, support, guidance, healing and defense, so we have experiences of shadow angels. And we have names for them: racism, sexism, homophobia are all demons - but they're not out there.
Matthew Fox
Compassion is not pity ... compassion never considers an object as weak or inferior. Compassion, one might say, works from a strength born of awareness of shared weakness, and not from someone else's weakness. And from the awareness of the mutuality of us all. Thus to put down another as in pity is to put down oneself.
Matthew Fox
Do not confuse beauty with beautiful. Beautiful is a human judgment. Beauty is All. The difference is everything.
Matthew Fox
Awe is the beginning of wisdom. Awe is the beginning of education.
Matthew Fox
The only way to learn compassion is through your heart you have to back up and pass through your own pain.
Matthew Fox
I don't think that fundamentalism has anything to do with Jesus Christ. They call themselves Christians, but if that's Christian, count me out. Fundamentalism is built on fear and greed. They're telling you to give them your money otherwise you're going to hell.
Matthew Fox
Filmmaking is always sort of building a mosaic of this arc of what the character is going through.
Matthew Fox
I think that there's a hidden darkness in all of us!
Matthew Fox
A lot of people want to see this idealized version of heroism, all pretty and perfect, and I'm not interested in playing the goody-goody hero at all.
Matthew Fox
To create is always to learn, to begin over, to begin at zero.
Matthew Fox
